Those look like nasturtiums - my very favorite flower!
Here are some flower photos I've taken since getting my new Panasonic FZ20 in June:

I like the color's on the butterfly weed. Very nice composition on that last photo, I like how the flowers are reaching for the ground.

Here's a picture I took a few days ago of my mother's rose.

All of the pictures previously posted by others are great!. Here is my little contribution. Taken with G6 in late afternoon.

Jeff31... I really like that first rose. I don't know how much of a "purist" you are, but I personally would clone out the black specks on the petals. Draws my eye right to them, and takes away from the rest of the rose. JMHO.

Just an update on my thorny critter. I little while ago I theorized that the flowering started as a central band, and then spread up and down. Now I'm pretty sure of that. Here is an example where the central band has just started to split:


And here is one that is almost done:

Well I know i've been looking forward to this for a long time....
Keep in mind these pics are mostly Auto mode and the other modes, I still gotta learn how to use manual mode better. I took 120 shots but i'll only share a few.

Enjoy!!! I LUV THIS CAMERA!!!!!!
